CWJ-NASU03 Silent Miyama (deep mountain) Hill Climb

A challenging hill climb route including over 10% steep slopes.

This is a hill climb route with a peaceful road in good condition where cars rarely pass. You can enjoy the charming atmosphere different from the Nasu Kogen area, where you can see a vast and beautiful view along the route.
It is located on the western side of the Nasu Mountain Range and it is a convenient way to access the peaceful onsen area called “Itamuro Onsen”, famous for its herbal bath of Shimotsuke.

The wonderful-winding road continues 8km between the mountains.

You can enjoy the view of the deep mountain range that is just like a scene from the Japanese cartoon “Nihon Mukaahi Banashi” (Once Upon a Time in Japan).

You may not be able to imagine that Nasu is a famous sightseeing area. This is a very isolated route.

This is a great spot where you can fully enjoy the splendid autumn leaves, whilst climbing the hill.

At the top of this route, which has a dead-end, there is a cycle stand to mount your bicycle on.

The onsen called Sachi no Yu at the entrance to the hill climb route, is a great location to visit on the way back down.

If you want to stop riding or need urgent repairs for a puncture or similar issues, you can call the “Cycle Rescue Taxi“, who will bring a bike rack to carry your bike with, an AED (Heart Defibrillator) and repair equipment such as a new tube, pump and so on.
